Speaking at a pre-event media briefing in Lagos, President, Association of Corporate Affairs Managers of Banks, Mr Rasheed Bolarinwa, said the Nigerian economy would be the major beneficiary of the conference as far reaching strategies would be taken to tap into the nascent economic benefits through the expected synergy.
According to him, the conference would bring together the best players on both sides to act as think tank for the nation’s macro economic growth.
Bolarinwa said, “The Organised Private Sector is a valued stakeholder of the banking industry. Both the banking industry and the Organised Private Sector play major roles in growing the economy.
“The need for the two sectors to work closely cannot be overemphasised. ACAMB is therefore reaching out to secure the participation of relevant speakers at the conference.”
